    What is most valuable?

    The product is easy to use in terms of monitoring all the environments. It works for multiple clouds.

    What needs improvement?

    There could be flexibility in pricing for the product. They should provide information or tools to tune the cloud resources according to the environment size. It will help us get the right cost. Additionally, there could be integration with different cloud providers so developers can utilize diverse servers.

    We have been using VMware Aria Cost powered by CloudHealth for five years.

    The product's stability is extremely good.

    A good observability tool for costs in the cloud

    Reviewed on Mar 16, 2023
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    VMware Aria Cost powered by CloudHealth helps us understand the cloud costs of our customers with a deep drill down to each service, linked account, etc. It also helps us visualize the data using dashboards and view some cost savings recommendations
    What do you dislike about the product?
    In my opinion, VMware Aria Cost powered by CloudHealth is lacking a central view of cost savings recommendations for many services. Although there are recommendations for commitments and a few others, there is no central location to view all recommendations (for example: EIPs that are not assigned to any instance) and this makes it a bit harder to understand how to save on costs
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    VMware Aria Cost powered by CloudHealth is solving the problem of having a centralized view for all of our (and our customers) cloud costs with an option to filter and visualize the data in many ways.

    Great cloud platform

    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    "All of our operations have been streamlined and automated by CloudHealth. We are able to easily create custom policies given the fact that CloudHealth reduces risk and expedites our decision-making process. The detailed and accurate visibility also allows continuous cloud usage monitoring and performance analysis, leading to more precise capacity planning and better resource utilization for our organization. We can simply monitor performance with CloudHealth and compare it to our provisioned capacity, allowing us to maximize asset value."
    What do you dislike about the product?
    The inability to personalize the fast bar on the left-hand side to make it simpler to go to sites I usually visit would be my main complaint about the app, if I had to select just one issue. The screen periodically lags for a few seconds, and it has previously stalled on me for a while. I've always had network and performance issues. In fact, it is the most useful tool I have ever used.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Because misconfigurations can be found using security rules and customized policies, loudHealth offers real-time visibility into the security posture of our cloud. Additionally, the platform gives me the ability to prioritize concerns based on numerical risk levels and offers visual context for swiftly analyzing and fixing issues. I appreciate that CloudHealth creates reports and tables that provide a fantastic visual picture of cloud consumption trends and assist in locating any areas where cloud usage charges are exorbitant.

    A great way to identify the trends in, and improve, your team's cloud usage!

    Reviewed on Jul 10, 2021
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    I really like the reports that Cloud Health generates and the tables it creates, which provide a very good visual for the trends in cloud usage and helps identify any areas where the cloud usage costs might be excessive. I also appreciate the suggestions that the platform provides for improving resource efficency!
    What do you dislike about the product?
    I would've loved to see an option for exporting the graphical reports CloudHealth creates as Microsoft Office files. That would've helped tremendously in official meetings/presentations. I also find the notifications icon and settings hard to manipulate.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    My organization was using CloudHealth for basic analysis and identifying areas where costs could be reduced. To that we found CloudHealth's recommendations useful in helping us establish better governance policies for our cloud usage.
